GYNECOMASTIA
What is gynecomastia?
Female breast enlargement problems can occur in men for various reasons. Hormonal imbalance, excessive weight gain or side effects of some medications may be experienced. It is possible to get rid of the condition called Gynecomastia in medical terms with plastic surgery. Gynecomastia does not pose a serious health risk. However, it has negative social and psychological effects on patients suffering from Gynecomastia. Men with Gynecomastia problems can be saved with 2 methods. The first; Liposuction method, Excess fat in the breast tissue is removed through a small 1 cm incision. Excess fat tissue is reduced and thus the breast is reduced. There is no scar left after the Liposuction method. Another method is Excision Gynecomastia. It is recommended if breast growth is more advanced and there is excess fat along with excess skin. In the Excision Gynecomastia method, breast tissue and excess skin are removed with surgical incisions. After Excision Gynecomastia, a crescent-shaped scar remains just below the nipple. However, over time, the scars become invisible and unnoticeable when viewed from the outside.
Gynecomastia surgery process and aftermath:
Gynecomastia surgery takes about 1-2 hours and is a surgical procedure performed under general anesthesia. The patient stays in the hospital overnight after gynecomastia surgery. Regardless of the method used, a special corset recommended by the doctor is worn for about 3 weeks after gynecomastia surgery. Pain that may occur after surgery can be controlled with painkillers. Patients can return to sports lifting 6 weeks after surgery, as it is recommended that they continue exercising.
